How a few weeks can change things in football. 3-4 games ago and a large number of people were saying we needed better.

4 or 5 games ago I posted the same thing about giving him a new deal. Can't sleep on this imho

It was 1 or 3 who know nothing about football. If we have not offered by now we will ha e missed the boat with his agent on the ball no doubt.

World Cup centre half for me

Looks like a 15 yr old playing in an under 12 s game, so strong , we will do well to keep hold ,He will no doubt go to a top six side , oh wait that's us !!!!!!

Is it me or is Pope better or at least as good as Tom ? He has a huge presence in goal and his decision making is top class as is his distribution. I am amazed how good he looks. Didnt have tons to do today but did what he had to do perfectly.

Could it be our back 8 that make them look good. All long range shots and not much to do?

2 words.. SEAN DYCHE

It is his framework, his coaching, his staff. Its the collective team which allows these players to do what they do as they all know their jobs.

Pope is miles better in the air than Tom. Tom is a far better shot stopper and all around keeper/leader.

Dear Chairman,
Thanks'

Agree that he looks very competent and composed. On this form he will be challenging for the number one spot in goal, I'm saying that as a big fan of Heaton.

Pope is a good deputy but more sticks to Toms hands first time.

This can only be good for the club.
I think we need to give full credit to the coaching staff, particularly Billy Mercer.

Tarks, Mee and Hendrick all out of contract at end of next season

They are all proving their worth

Don't want another situation like Keane this summer

Why on earth would we willingly insert a release clause in a player's contract?

Dear Chairman,

Thank you for running this club is such a professional sustainable manner.

Keep up the good work.

So that we try and get a minimum, acceptable value for the player concerned - better than the small amount that we got for Trippier

I appreciate that any player and his agent generally hold the cards on such matters but these guys (espec Tarks) are getting some pretty good coverage already this season

The idea of potentially losing 3 players (Tarks, Mee and Hendrick) next summer will be hard to replace

Any release clause would only come in as part of a new contract offer

Why would Tarkowski sign that contract?

Tarkowski has done well. However if we are handing out new contracts every time someone has 5 good games in a row we really are on a sticky wicket.

Because he's seen his stock rising dramatically at Burnley whilst Michael Keanes diminishes at Everton. The players aren't daft and they will see that the grass isn't always greener. Some players will absolutely prefer to stay than gamble on a move - who knows whether Tarkowski is one of those?

Something similar for Sean Dyche.

Can't see Tarks signing a Burnley contract with a £50 million release clause in it, in fact he'd be bloody mad to. We managed to hang onto Trips as long as we did because the release clause was low and the contract gave him options to move to a bigger club.

Dear Chairman...please just carry on supporting Dyche,thanks that's all
Yours a Loving Claret X

I don't think you know how release clauses work
